The Nanny

I sent out a desperate plea to some friends for help while I get Your Child Talking launched and spend some essential time on the moolah-raising for Purse and Boots. So while I’m “at work” I’m entrusting my blog to the care of others once in a while. So today I’m turning IPoMP over to the incredible CDG from Move Over Mary Poppins. She’s an ACTUAL nanny, so what can go wrong?

She did the responsible thing. She hired a nanny to watch her readers while she was at work.

And by hired I mean she flattered me by asking. I’m notoriously easy. I might have said yes hoping to boot one of you ladies out of her court because she’s pretty. Just sayin’.

So, basically, I figure if IPoMP is still here when Lori gets home, what happens between us stays between us. But you’re going to have to help me clean up.

And if I serve Kraft Mac&Cheese for lunch, you have to tell her you ate vegetables. We should probably get our stories straight as to which ones. (Broccoli always impresses parents, as does asparagus.) She’s all smart – and she’s got teenagers. She’ll figure it out if we’re lying.

A good nanny has always got a bag of tricks to keep the kids occupied. I like to start the day off with an outing. If the weather’s nice, we can play outside! Let’s do chalk drawings on Lori’s driveway for when she comes home!

“This is the blog that doesn’t end,
And it goes on and on my friend,
Somebody started writing it,
Not knowing what it was,
and she’ll continue writing it forever…just because…”
Mother Hen loves a catchy little ditty!

Now I just want to eat some KD. I’ll pass on the broccoli. Plus I had completely forgot about lamb chop and don’t think my kids have every seen him..er…her? Anyway, thanks for a great post. Of course Lori would find a Nanny with the perfect credentials. Graphic illustrations must have been part of her requirements. They always impress me!
I’d let my blog be handed over to you any day Move Over Mary Poppins.
